Subject: [GIT PULL] slab updates for 6.14

Hi Linus,

please pull the latest slab updates from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab.git tags/slab-for-6.14

There's a small conflict with the mm tree:

Thanks,
Vlastimil

======================================

* Move the kfree_rcu() implementation from RCU to SLAB subsystem
  (Uladzislau Rezki)

  The kfree_rcu() implementation has been historically maintained in the RCU
  subsystem. At LSF/MM we agreed to move it to SLAB, where it more logically
  belongs to. The batching is planned be more integrated with SLUB internals in
  the future, while using the RCU APIs like any other subsystem.

* Fix for kernel-doc warning (Randy Dunlap)

----------------------------------------------------------------

      mm/slab: fix kernel-doc func param names

Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) (5):
      rcu/kvfree: Initialize kvfree_rcu() separately
      rcu/kvfree: Move some functions under CONFIG_TINY_RCU
      rcu/kvfree: Adjust names passed into trace functions
      rcu/kvfree: Adjust a shrinker name
      mm/slab: Move kvfree_rcu() into SLAB

Vlastimil Babka (1):
      Merge branch 'slab/for-6.14/kfree_rcu_move' into slab/for-next
